#HRhelpdesk #IndiaHRGuide #MandeepSingh, with 25 years of HR expertise, Mandeep Singh breaks down the rising trend of Quiet Quitting and its progression into Silent Resignation. He explains how employees may continue meeting job expectations, yet withdraw their discretionary effort, creativity, and problem‑solving—silently reducing organizational productivity. Mandeep highlights why this behaviour emerges, how it impacts delivery velocity, and why managers—not HR—play the most crucial role in reversing it. He emphasizes the need for strong communication systems, data‑driven insights, and empowered supervisors to identify early signals and re‑engage employees before silent resignation becomes inevitable.

#HRhelpdesk #IndiaHRGuide #MandeepSingh, with 25 years of HR expertise, Mandeep Singh demystifies the rising debate around moonlighting and dual employment in India. He explains the difference between the two—how moonlighting operates as a commercial, task‑based engagement, while dual employment remains legally restricted under Indian labour laws. Mandeep highlights why the real organisational concern is knowledge usage, not time or physical effort, and how global HR trends increasingly view moonlighting as a powerful learning and development lever. He urges organizations to build structured L&D philosophies that safely enable external learning without compromising proprietary knowledge.

#HRhelpdesk #IndiaHRGuide #MandeepSingh, with 25 years of HR expertise, Mandeep Singh explains the purpose and practical implications of non‑compete clauses that appear in appointment letters, HR policies, or separate agreements. He describes how organizations may restrict industries, companies, geographies or combinations of these, but clarifies that Indian law does not permit any clause that limits a person’s livelihood after employment ends. Non‑compete clauses therefore become void, while the rest of the contract remains valid. He emphasizes that employees must avoid data leaks, client or employee poaching, or misuse of goodwill, as these can attract legal action. For organizations that genuinely need restrictions, he highlights garden leave as the only enforceable method—applicable only while the individual remains on the payroll. Once employment ends, the employee is free to join any organization.
